What this shows Forcome's Innovation Score is 39.8/100 (top 37% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Forcome?

Each dot is one of Forcome’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Forcome’s own 8.2 claims/patent is at or below the 20.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Forcome's grants concentrate

Forcome Co. Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under B66D (CAPSTANS; WINCHES; Tackles, e.g. Pulley BLOCKS; Hoists). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Forcome sits between Footmarks, Inc. and Forkbeard Technologies AS.

Forcome's three-year grant acceleration

Forcome Co. Ltd. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
